    Superconductivity

     

    One area of expertise of AMPeers is superconducting materials. Superconductors are materials that exhibit zero resistance to the flow of electricity. As such, they can be very impactful in applications which can greatly benefit from high electric power density, high magnetic fields, power delivery in an ultra-compact volume, better power quality and high energy efficiency.

    High Temperature Superconductors (HTS) are materials that exhibit zero resistance at temperatures above the boiling point of liquid nitrogen, which is abundant and inexpensive. HTS wires can carry 300 – 600 times the current carrying capacity of copper wires of the same size.
